“This is, to me, the loveliest and saddest landscape in the world. It is the same as that on the preceding page, but I have drawn it again to impress it on your memory. It is here that the little prince appeared on Earth, and disappeared.
Look at it carefully so that you will be sure to recognise it in case you travel some day to the African desert. And, if you should come upon this spot, please do not hurry on. Wait for a time, exactly under the star. Then, if a little man appears who laughs, who has golden hair and who refuses to answer questions, you will know who he is. If this should happen, please comfort me. Send me word that he has come back.”

“...I see fetal sciences in you,
mummified poems, and bones
of my romantic secrets
and old innocence.
Shall I hang you on the wall
of my emotional museum,
beside the dark, chill,
sleeping irises of my evil?
Or shall I spread you over the pines
―suffering book of my love―
so you can learn about the song
the nightingale offers the dawn?...”
